The Coming Violence

Interpersonal violence tends to escalate quickly, where the combatants seem to go from wary suspicion to verbal confrontation and then trading blows. Anyone who has been in a bar fight understands this accelerated process. Two guys are playing pool, words are exchanged and suddenly a beer bottle is smashed over someone’s head. Sports fights follow a similar pattern. Two players get a bit heated and then all of a sudden, you have a bench clearing brawl. This even happens in the professional ranks.

Of course, people don’t actually go from zero to eleven in the blink of an eye. It just appears that way to the outsider. In reality, there is an underlying hostility between the parties that simmers until one or both come to the conclusion that violence is the best option or the only option. In a bar fight, the guy taking the first blow often assumes the other guy is about to do the same thing. In a sports melee, normal male honor requires each side to match the escalation of the other side until a fight breaks out.

This pattern can certainly play out in other areas of life. In fact, rulers have always understand that general discontent among the rabble is like dry underbrush. It only takes a spark and you have a forest fire. In the case of civil unrest, a simmering discontent in the community, or among a sub-group, can quickly turn into a riot. The Rodney King riots in 1992 are a good example. The black underclass had developed a deep hatred of the cops, so when the cops were acquitted, that was the spark that set off the ghetto riot.

More recently and on a smaller scale, the shooting at the Pittsburgh synagogue is an example of a member of a sub-culture who went from zero to mass shooter in one afternoon. He did not pick the target at random or even because they were Jewish, but rather because they were part of a subversive group throwing open the gates to the country to foreign invaders. In other words, like the guy slugging someone at a bar, the shooter thought he was acting rationally and violence was the only rational option.

The point being, whether it is the seemingly incoherent and ad hoc violence of a bar fight or sports melee, or a person or group committing social violence, the actors arise from predictable conditions and act quite rationally. There is a degree of predictability to their actions, if you’re willing to notice. It’s why bouncers in bars keep an eye on the males competing with one another for females. It’s why sports referees look for guys getting agitated and send them off the field to cool down and get their head back in the game.

In modern America, there does not seem to be anyone in charge willing to play the role of bouncer or referee. Instead, the people in charge are like the guy with the stick in old-time bare knuckle fights. They are trying to get the combatants to go at one another, rather than keep them under control. The deployment, tolerance and protection of Antifa, for example, is a deliberate provocation. The people in charge not only hope these idiots hurt someone, they hope white men will defend themselves so they can be railroaded by the courts.

At a smaller scale, the vicious and petty war on white men seems like it is designed to create an American Anders Breivik. Every day, the news brings stories of a white guy getting fired from his job because he told the wrong joke, liked the wrong social media meme or simply was not enthusiastic enough for Progressive fads. This story about a sportsball fan fired because he was upset at the black coach of his favorite sportsball team is a good example. The celebratory tone of the story should be noted.

Now, what’s driving these hunts for the impertinent white guy is the deadly virtue spiral among the ruling class. The dingbats in the media who spend their days hunting down bad thinkers and getting them fired, are acting from a desire for attention. The people at the company who play along with it are acting out of fear. Is this a replay of the Reign of Terror, where radicals spiraled out of control in an orgy of violence. or, is it the Great Terror, where Stalin locked in his control by killing off anyone that could threaten him?

The historically appropriate analogy is debatable, but what is not debatable is modern America is not 18th century France of 20th century Russia. In a multi-racial society, where the old majority is being swamped by former minorities and those former minorities are told they must hate the old majority. The atmosphere is nothing but kindling. A prudent ruling class would be acting as firemen, hunting down anything that looks like a spark, over- reacting if necessarily, in order to prevent a blaze they may not be able to control.

That’s possibly a clue about what our ruling class truly fears. Much of the political talk on the Left after the 2016 election was about how they may have jumped the gun and created a bit of backlash. The BLM murder sprees the summer before the election certainly opened a lot of eyes about the reality of what comes next. The relentless hunting down of internet racists could simply be an effort at calming their constituents. A black guy, enraged by racists memes, going on a shooting spree would be bad for the cause.

Alternatively, the hunting down of internet racists could simply be another sign that the ruling class is oblivious to what’s happening. Hanlon’s Razor says to assume stupidity in these cases. The people who rule over us are strangely unfamiliar with violence. They know it only through their televisions. It’s why they have embraced the Antifa mobs. To people unfamiliar with violence, those black clad idiots look like what managerial class types imagine revolutionaries look like. They don’t know what they don’t know.

Either way, social discontent can easily turn to social unrest and then violence. The people in charge are loading the forest with dry underbrush and kindling, while flicking matches at one another. Maybe they don’t see the danger. Maybe they fear the wrong things. Perhaps they want to see it all burn. Regardless of the motivation, the conditions for political and social violence are just about perfect. One of the matches the idiots in the media are flicking into the underbrush will eventually set the world on fire.

Either way, social discontent can easily turn to social unrest and then violence. The people in charge are loading the forest with dry underbrush and kindling, while flicking matches at one another. Maybe they don’t see the danger. I’ll go with equal parts stupid and don’t see the danger, although maybe that is the same thing. Kind of like the recent fires in California. Thy saw the danger but then again they didn’t. Or maybe they never thought that it would actually happen, and even more so they never thought that it would happen to them.

I think your math is way off, or your English language comprehension is way off.
If by “the 2 percent” you mean jews (and I know that this is what you mean), you are implying that all of the jews are part of the “1 percent”, that all the jews in America comprise 50% of the One Percent.
Nothing is further from the truth, mathematically or grammatically.

This is how distribution curves work. Agitating people into thinking this is somehow unjust has been a tool to bring societies down into misery for ages. See Venezuela.

Exactly how much wealth should the top 10% control? How would you go about enforcing that? What negative externalities do you think you might create via your efforts? It’s not as if there’s a shortage of real-world examples.

Answers none of the questions I posed, except possibly “how much wealth should the top 10% control?” Should we enforce wealth distribution to an ideal Pareto distribution? Regardless of the causes of deviations from that curve? I don’t suppose the importation of legions of no-skill third-worlders has any effect at all on the distribution…. (it totally has an effect on the distribution).

University admistrators are especially pathetic and unaccountable, but Id like to think that the boards of public companies would at some point protect their shareholders from recklessly impotent management.

“Answers none of the questions I posed, except possibly “how much wealth should the top 10% control?”” Wrong perception. Does the fact that Bill Gates is worth a couple of Billion diminish your ability to try an earn a couple of million?

I suspect most statements of the type “Wealth inequality causes x” are cases of reversed causality or spurious correlations.

I was a big fan of Jordan Peterson’s psych lectures but stopped listening to him long before VD’s takedown because he had an entire video with a guy who wrote a book about wealth inequality causing violent crime.

15 minutes into the video, neither had mentioned the word “black”. That was the last JBP video I ever watched.

Re fixed pie and how Gates’ wealth has hurt me, there’s no fixed pie and Gates has made me much richer through the wealth and technology he has created. I am asking those questions specifically to draw out those things. 😉

The general argument is a good one, expanding pies and all that. However, your example (MS-DOS) leaves something to be desired. Neither Gates nor anyone else at Microsoft created MS-DOS. Microsoft bought it from Tim Paterson and leased it out to IBM. If anything, it serves either as an example of why people dislike “middle men” or why middle men are a good thing, depending on your point of view.

The answer is all about framing. If people frame differences in wealth as emanating from reasonable causes, they accept those differences. If they frame differences as coming from injustice (whose definition is highly elastic), they are outraged. It all depends on the anger/complacency quotient, a product of mass psychology no different from fads or fashions. Keep in mind that while Enron’s share price was ramping higher, all the malfeasance grew invisibly.

By that logic, 10% of the males should also have 80% of the females. It’s nature, and it’s already happening, right?

The numbers don’t line up exactly like that, but about 80% of females reproduced, historically, but only 40% of men reproduced. The top 10% of men do, in fact, get far more than a 10% share of the women. The questions I posed aren’t about what “should” happen. They’re about “What do you propose to do about it, how is your solution going to be any better, and have you considered the downsides of your solution?

True, but that “wealth” is largely on paper – Bezo’s wealth is tied to his holdings in Amazon. Amazon stock drops, so does Bezo’s wealth. Not likely to happen much, but it is possible (look at Sears). Besides, he built that wealth, so why is he not entitled to it?

Think back to the 2005 riots in France, the state was utterly incapable of controlling them, and the riots went on for almost a month. Recently, some generals in the French military said they could not contain a similar outbreak again. When riots broke out in the UK in 2011, it was only contained by flooding London with tens of thousands of cops from the rest of the country. It also helped that the Muslims fought back against the largely black rioters.

Right now, whites are showing no signs of violence. The Pittsburgh guy is a notable exception, but we know nothing about him. Otherwise, there’s no reason to think honkies will be rioting in the suburbs anytime soon. My guess is radicalization will accelerate as whites realize that voting is pointless.

The minority in South Africa (descended from inside the Hajnal line) didn’t rise up in large numbers, compared to the contemporary Balkan Wars by those outside it.

Riots are typically urban in character, rural types use other methods. Typically in Europe the farmers will blockade roads, in the US the last “mine revolt” must have been decades ago. The so-called Battle of Athens was also an aberration. Even organizing a peaceful demonstration is logistically difficult in the low-density rural US, as everyone must drive.

The highest periods of (relative) prosperity in Black American history were during the two world wars. The reasons are fairly simple to explain. A significant number of white males were conscripted and removed from the labor market. Additionally, immigration was virtually nil during the war years, even during the 1924-65 pause we still had a modest amount coming from Europe. Particularly in WW1, due to a recent Civil War there was none of the immigration from Mexico that occurred in WW2.

There are always something known as “transaction costs” in any economic decision. Most blacks have historically lived in the rural South, first as slaves then as sharecroppers. In the early 20th century, the local elite were only too glad to see the back of the blacks moving out due to both mechanization of harvest and higher wages in Northern factories. In the absence of war driven demand, and restricted labor supply, the transactional cost of migration outweighed the benefits. The same reason why people don’t “learn to code” today.

In terms of damage done to our society, ranking right behind blacks are college educated urban whites who embraced multi-kult, homosexuality, globalization, the eradication of our culture. Sure they don’t pull out a gun and cap their fellow alumni over tennis shoes, they just support every insane post-modern piece of shit policy put in front of them. A nice corrective would be for dispossessed blue collar and middle-class whites driving into these whites neighborhhoods and butchering the f**kers for supporting policies… Read more »

The black community was violent and chaotic before whites imposed their laws on them. The Civil Rights movement was a successful rebellion and now black communities in the US look more like black communities in Africa.

A Samurai’s master was murdered by a thief, it fell to that Samurai to avenge the act. At last the Samurai cornered the thief, and raised his sword. In fear the thief spit it the Samurai’s face. The Samurai sheathed his sword, and left without striking. Why did he leave? The Samurai became angry when the thief spit in his face. If he had killed the thief in that moment, it would have been a different act than what his duty brought him there to do, it would have become a personal act. In the coming excitement, do what must… Read more »

I blame the news media and internet news in particular, which tries to keep people in a constant state of hysteria in order to generate clicks. The most extreme voices are amplified; stories that used to be confined to the “news of the weird” section of the local paper are now front page news, etc. It makes me want to simply tune out of everything.

When I was a little girl, my father and I were fixing something mechanical and we were working on it and working on it I’m having great difficulty. All the sudden my father turned and looked at me and said, force is your last option. It’s always stuck with me because it felt so strangely prophetic then and now. Try everything else but violence is an option, don’t rule it out. And something I read recently, I can’t remember where, was no one can expect the police to maintain order in any society if the people do not backup the… Read more »

“Force is the last option” is how whitey has always operated.

The American colonists spent years trying to resolve their grievances with the British Crown. That first fight in 1775 was “the Shot Heard Round the World” because it signaled that the time for the last option had arrived and there was no going back.

I understand the need to keep morale up, but tough talk is cheap. Where are these ‘Saxons’ going to come from, then? Materialise from the ether? The reality (here in the UK, at least) is that of the ‘relevant’ (i.e. fighting-age) population at least a quarter is non-white/recently-arrived/potentially hostile, another quarter is so deracinated/ignorant it might as well be alien, and then there are unknown fractions of the treacherous or cowardly. The odds are not good. Those Saxons of yours simply haven’t been conceived in any meaningful numbers for 40 years or more.

American colonists had a higher standard of living than did their cousins in England. Parliament had repealed all but one of the “offending” laws that historical mythology claims “caused” the American rebellion.

Maybe the people who push aristocracy have a point. We have a ruling class that has very little to no skin in the game, because money is the only social currency. This was increasingly true in the years leading up to the French Revolution as many of the upper class and nobility had lost their place in society, being displaced by the organs of absolute monarchy. They thus became rather nihilistic in their approach to life and politics, and ended in actually instigating much of the revolutionary fervor that led to the demise of many of them. The King’s brother… Read more »

You’re right. At the moment, White men have no “home base,” much as we have no “homeland.” We’re individuals acting against a very well organized, motivated team that controls the government, the medial, tech firms and academia. Any White guy who sticks his neck out loses everything, and no one will come to his aid. It’s suicidal. I’ve argued for awhile that you’ll know that the worm has turned when you see “White” or “European-American” business or community groups pop up.

Ooops! Forgot to mention that the above applies to whites only, but we all know that. It almost makes me want to go out and join some non-proselytizing religion or another.

Good analysis. The ruling class wants us divided and fighting. The more ordinary people begin to catch on to their malfeasance and incompetence, the more it is necessary for us to be divided so we fight each other rather than doing the rational thing and depose them. It’s a race. Either way, confligration is coming.

The ruling class assumes they will suffer no consequences and whitey will “Lie back and think of the Constitution.” Thus the ruling class can grind its boot into the face of whitey infinitely with impunity. Even if there is riotous violence, it Goodwhite ruling class sorts think it will not touch them or occur in their neighborhood. After all, previous flashy riots never impinged on ruling-class neighborhoods. And if the violence gets too close for comfort, LEOs & US .mil will intervene to stop it from hurting the Goodwhite ruling class and its mascots. The problem with this is that… Read more »

Hanlon was probably wrong. The ruling elite deploys violence legitimately and therefor knows it better than the average citizen, albeit not as well as the soldiers and police who are their enforcers. None of their actions are nonsensical from the standpoint of defending an emergent regional sovereignty of unions (European, American, African, and Asian) which form the basis of a future global state.

“The people who rule over us are strangely unfamiliar with violence.” Back even a few decades ago, most (all?) of our Presidents and many of our elected leaders served in the military and were at least casually familiar with mass violence. Now? Walk around Washington during the day or ride the Metro in D.C., not at the monuments but rather where the elites work. The “men” are all effeminate sissies.

Lolz. Race realists or not, true conservatives are rabbits. In 2024 these rabbits will vote for “the lesser of two evils” again. Guaranteed.

Someone on Gab recently said (I paraphrase) that to leftists, political violence is like a themostat that they believe they can turn up and down (with riots, targeted “protests” like that outside Tucker Carlson’s house, etc.) at will. An important part of this is the belief that when they turn down the heat, things will de-escalate, and nothing bad will end up happening to them. But for the right, political violence is like a light switch; it’s either on or off – either it’s “let’s keep trying votes and Tea Party rallies” or it’s “Just line them up against the… Read more »

Rory Miller’s series of books, Meditations on Violence and Facing Violence, do an excellent job of articulating the steps of what he calls the “monkey dance,” which is the scenario in Z’s bar fight example. Violence can often seem sudden, but according to Miller, there are recognizable steps of escalation. Miller also lays out a number of other scenarios that are much more common and realistic for everyday folk.

Tyranny 101. Sow discontent. Grow desperation. Use false flags to ignite mass violence. Unleash LEOs against the good guys and pray they decimate each other. Then step into the ruins with ruthless thugs and go for the kill. It’s a tried and true strategy that can work even here in the USA. But it can be foiled.

I’m not optimistic that virtually anything the elite does will bring a widespread violent reaction from the white masses. Even if it did break out, it would not be widespread, and it would perhaps last a day or two, before there was a run on the local shopping centers. The elite would simply make the necessary short-run concessions/adjustments, and return to “boiling the frog” slowly. The most I can imagine are heavily white regions of the country attempting to disobey, or perhaps withdraw, from the System and it’s dictates.

Z-Man, one idea for a podcast segment is the 1919 communist revolution in Germany. There was one in Hungary as well that year. Both were suppressed, but they could have won.

Something else to ask the Zman. We always exaggerate. Factions exaggerate, I guess out of strategic necessity. We’re never just…mellow. There’s the cliche of the pendulum swinging far left, then far right. What era would you say society came closest to getting things right? Where the pendulum was at its most balanced. Where peace actually accompanied justice.
